Deepwood Cardigan

Deepwood Cardigan was designed to be a versatile, **“workhorse” garment** that you can wear for any occasion. Whether you’re planning to go on a hike or dress up for a day out, this cardigan is a great addition your capsule wardrobe. The cardigan’s standout features are its tailored fit and the **tuck detail** on the buttonband and neckband. It's worked **seamlessly** **from the top down** using the contiguous method for **set-in sleeves**. The **wool, cotton and linen blend yarn** was chosen on purpose to create a garment that can withstand a lot of wear, while also being warm and drapey. The small percentage of silk adds a subtle shine to the fabric, which is slightly variegated up close. The pattern was tech edited and tested. **FINISHED CHEST CIRCUMFERENCE** 30 ¼ (34 ¼, 38 ¼, 42 ¼, 46 ¼, 50 ¼, 54 ¼, 58 ¼, 62 ¼, 66 ¼) in/ 77 (87, 97, 107.5, 117.5, 127.5, 138, 148, 158, 168.5) cm 0.25 in / 0.5 cm positive ease (close-fitting) Model is 5'6" / 168 cm tall, has a 34 in/86.5 cm bust, and is wearing size S. **KNITTING GAUGE** 22 sts and 28 rows = 4 in/10 cm in stockinette stitch **YARN** Fine/sport weight yarn Yarn used: The Fibre Co Luma, 50% wool, 25% cotton, 15% linen, 10% silk, 137 yds/ 125 m per 50 g/1.8 oz. 6 (7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10) skeins or 822 (959, 1096, 1096, 1096, 1233, 1233, 1370, 1370, 1370) yds/750 (875, 1000, 1000, 1000, 1125, 1125, 1250, 1250, 1250) m **NOTIONS** 5 buttons, approx. ½ in/1.3 cm in diameter 6 stitch markers Scrap yarn or stitch holder Tapestry needle ..........
